Java - SOAP Http Post

Use the examples below as a template for posting an xml SOAP message to my document/literal operation style web service. Also, you can customize the message you send to the remote procedure (in bold).

Example 1-11. Upload the SOAP message: PostXml.java

import java.net.*;
import java.io.*;

public class PostXml {

  public static void main(String[] args) {
  
    try {
     /* String xmldata = "<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"UTF-8\"?>" + 
 "<env:Envelope " + 
   "env:encodingStyle=\"http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/\" " + 
   "xmlns:env=\"http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/\" " + 
   "xmlns:xsd=\"http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema\" " + 
   "xmlns:xsi=\"http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance\">" +
   "<env:Header/>" +
          "<env:Body>" +
     "<ans1:readLS xmlns:ans1=\"http://phonedirlux.homeip.net/types\">" +
       "<String_1 xsi:type=\"xsd:string\">your message or e-mail</String_1>" +
     "</ans1:readLS>" +
   "</env:Body>" +
        "</env:Envelope>"; */
  
     String xmldata = "<s12:Envelope xmlns:s12='http://www.w3.org/2003/05/soap-envelope'>" +
       "<s12:Body> " +
        "<ns1:GetCitiesByCountry xmlns:ns1='http://www.webserviceX.NET'>" +
